The headquarters of the Magic Hand Sect was large and was surrounded by large mountains.
The Abandoned Elixir Cellar was relatively far from Drew's cave dwelling, so it took about an hour for Austin to arrive at the place.
It was situated on a wide valley in between two of the large mountains.
From far away, there was a sunken area where a dark green tower stood.
Majority of the tower's base was partially buried under the ground. The tower stood at about fifty to sixty meters tall; slim and sharp, pointing towards the sky.
On top of the tower's gate was a flat board that had 'Abandoned Elixir Cellar' written on it.
Austin walked up to the gate where he was then stopped by two disciples of the Magic Hand Sect who were guarding the tower.
He took out the token Elder Drew had given him.
As soon as the two disciples saw the token, they respectfully let Austin in.
They knew that disciples who had the token were closely acquainted to the elders.
Other disciples would usually butter up to the token holders whenever they had the chance of meeting them. . . . .
Austin walked straight into the tower
and was greeted by the strong acrid scent of elixir. The whole tower reeked of it.
The whole space was empty except for a well in the very center of the room. The well was about ten meters in diameter.
Around the well was a fence made of steel, protecting it.
As Austin scanned the area, he immediately observed that the space just above the well seemed a bit twisted. It wasn't very pronounced, but it was enough that he was able to sense it.
Aside from that, a vibe of an energy array was radiating from the mouth of the well.
It was obvious that the array was put on it as a form of protection for something.
Austin walked inside the steel fence by a small door. He then stood by the well, looking down carefully.
The inside of the well was extremely dark.
He wasn't able to see anything farther than four to five meters from the mouth of the well, thus he wasn't certain how deep the well was.
He decided to activate his spiritual sense to have a better look and was surprised to find that the well was about a thousand meters deep. And the deeper down the well went, the wider it became.
He sensed that the space at the bottom of the well was over a thousand meters wide.
However, it seemed as if there was some sort of hidden energy deep in the well, blocking his spiritual sense in a way.
So other than the depth and width of the well, he wasn't able to feel anything else.
He surmised that this well must be the Abandoned Elixirs Cellar.
He could smell a strong scent of elixir coming from the well.
And about four to five meters from the mouth of the well, he could see a constantly moving cloud of green and yellow mist in the air.
According to Drew, the green and yellow mist was supposed to be the so-called elixir essence.
Realizing this, he dived into the well at once.
He stopped when he was more or less five meters deep.
He then took out the two jade bottles that Drew gave him, holding it from the bottom part. As soon as he started using his vital energy force, the elixir essence quickly began to fly into the jade bottles. . .
As Austin was collecting the elixir essence, he felt a sudden fluctuation of energy coming from the bottom of the well. Something was messing with the deeper parts of the well.
He squinted his eyes in thought, 'Is there possibly something alive in the cellar?'
He activated his spiritual sense once again, trying to see if he could find anything, but much to his disappointment, he still wasn't able to find anything. Everything he sensed was all blurry and fuzzy, he couldn't figure out if something was there.
The two jade bottles were filled with elixir essence after a short moment.
He quickly pocketed them.
The rest of the elixir essence was still constantly moving around him, some even flew by him as if it were alive.
Being around the essence made Austin feel refreshed and energetic as if he had bathed in a hot spring.
The elixir essence was made from millions, ten millions, even hundred millions of waste elixirs.
It had countless condensed essences of expensive elixirs, and was truly a rare treasure.
